  • South African coach Pitso Mosimane's departure from Al Ahly is starting to cause anxiety among the club's supporters
  • The Egyptian superclub has hit a form wobble since the 57-year-old unexpectedly called it quits at the beginning of last month
  • Mosimane had a tempestuous relationship with supporters, former players and the media in his glorious but short tenure in Cairo

The saying goes that you don't know what you have until it is gone.

One of them, Ahmed Eissa, wrote:

I'm sorry Pitso Mosimane for criticizing you at times on the way you play, but you were hiding the team's flaws in an excellent way and this became clear after you left I'm sorry Coach Musimani again @TheRealPitso"

@Malungelo07 responded:

"A lot of decisions @TheRealPitso did are being proven correct already now. He hardly conceded goals like how it is happening now. He managed to find balance between being defensive and winning matches."

Mosimane had an inconsistent relationship with the supporters, former players and media, constantly facing criticism despite winning multiple trophies with the club.
